Why am I always so fortunate to receive such shocks? This time really bit early; yeah, this time, its early morning.
Every time I used to get ready to meet Arjun and used to take some extra time to get an extra attraction. But now, I burst out my cries silently.
I hurriedly got ready; Meanwhile, I noticed Swapna and she was still sleeping, she might be little tired of yesterday’s outing. I don’t want to spoil her day like mine.
I came down and looked. Everything was so calm, not like me. Mom was in kitchen and dad was scanning the world affairs.
“Mom, I have taken leave today; I am going out as an emergency”, without waiting for her reply I moved from that place.
Dad looked at me and asked ‘Shall I drop you there?’
My heart got heated up without any geyser. “I am not a kid; I have my mind and own enough age to decide the things. I want to be alone at least this time”, I shouted and came out.
I took an auto and told the address he looked me from top to bottom as he can see me as single for the last time.
Undoubtedly, I had troubles in my journey similar to my life journey. Thanks to the fabulous road and the charming traffic which added a spoonful of worseness to my great, yet another worst day. I reached the place within a couple of hours. The driver was still scanning me and I was scanning Nisha and Arjun.
This should not happen for me. I saw both of them were talking to each other.
The one, who disturbs me in all of my thoughts. Whether, Can I disturb them, now?
For a minute, I shut my eyes and my thoughts, to pacify myself, “Anamika, stay calm’.
When I opened my eyes, Arjun was not there and she was alone. I went there without wearing smiles. She told she is going to marry Jeffin and their parents were against to their decision. And even I too.
‘Nisha, this is not the right way and you should not go against your parents’, I told to her.
‘Anu, will you shut up on this. What you know about me and why you are interfering into this and this is none of your business’.
I talked calmly, to pacify her,’ Nisha, If you don’t mind, shall I ask you one thing?’
Yes Anu, you can. If that is not regarding me.
‘If I marry Arjun without saying a word to you what will you think? And what will you do?’
‘Are you joking Anu? You’re bad in humor sense and I can firmly say that Arjun will not do this at any cost.’
‘Same your parents also thinks like this, Nisha. Please revisit your state, Nisha. Be bold enough to face the situation. Try to understand your parents first and they will reciprocate the same to you. Take your time and think it off dear. I am leaving I would be happy neither you live with Jeffin nor with Jeffin in your family. The decision is all yours and decides the best’, I advised her.
While coming, I saw Arjun and Jeffin both coming together with garland. He tried to speak with me but I moved the place.
He pulled me; I asked him to leave. But, still he was holding his hands on me I slapped him hardly and left the place swiftly.
I don’t know why I slapped him. May be due to this clumsy situation happened or that much love I had on him or I don’t like to lose him for any reason. All these things might bust out and I touched his cheeks not softly but hardly.
If that auto man looks at me now. After seeing my single status, he will be happy; I presume.
I reached my home and it is looking like the haunted place because of me. All are very upset and I know I have to set the things like before.
Mom came and hugged me tightly. I am not able to speak with words rather than my cries and then she went to prepare dinner for us.
We all had our dinner together and started to smile again with complete essence. I love it, not the food but the smiles scattered. I took the mobile and noticed that Arjun messages and his uncountable calls. I ignored him like his messages and calls.
Nevertheless to say, I have to sleep which my soul needs badly.
After that incident, I am not able to face him because of the slap I made in his face. Though I was longing to see him, I was avoiding him in college but not his wonderful thoughts.
He tried to speak with me but I was so stubborn that I should not talk and it has been more than a week and our semesters have started. So, I was concentrating on my exams.
One fine day, after the exam I saw him and his sandwich eyes. It was pleading in front of me. I was using the steps while he was climbing down the steps. “Arjun sorry”, I whispered to myself.
“I always want to be in your hands. I never think off that my hands will slap you”. “Arjun, Please forgive Anamika..”, It’s rare to see roller coaster thoughts in my mind.
He came closely; He touched me and my curved hips; He looked at my eyes; He came very near to my lips. I closed my eyes tightly. I am in hands of lovable Arjun, yes MY ARJUN.
